Hope you don't mind. I took the liberty of putting the pic here.   

We'll have to get together for a ride next summer. I'm just down the road in London. Sweet looking bike. I like the old school fairing and the silver tank is nice.

Thanks for moving the picture.
I'm just a computer idiot when it comes to this stuff.
Sure we'll go for a ride next summer.
Maybe I'll meet you at the  401  Service Centre near woodstock.
The bike used to be my brothers, who passed away last year.
He bought it new.
I just had it shipped over from Germany.

There are a few really nice rides south of that area around Delhi and Simcoe way.
The pic is still on your photobucket. To display it just create an image tag like this

Manny I like the look of that I spose a sort of Jim Redman/ Hailwood rep.

What's it like to ride with the clipons under the top yoke?

[mannny]

No idea  what it'll be like to ride.
As I said above, just received the bike from Germany.
All I know is, it's been 20 years since I rode a bike ( bought a new 650 Nighthawk in 1983 ).
Not even sure if my old bones can still take it.
My first modifications were to remove the ugly rear fender extension ( required in Germany ) and recess the brake/taillight.
Since it already has a stainless front brake line, I ordered one for the rear as well.
Next on the list will be a Helmet & Jacket ( Who knows........maybe Santa will bring me something ).
A Shop Manual is also on the way.
Now, if I can just sort through the Red Tape & get it licensed by Spring, all will be well.
